A convenient synthesis of several tricyclic and bicyclic fluoro- and iodo analogs of cannabinoids has been reported. A new, mild methodology for the synthesis of vinyl fluorides from vinylstannanes has also been demonstrated. These C9 halo-functionalized cannabinoid analogs, along with (-) and (+)-DELTA9-THC carboxylic acids, were screened for anti-inflammatory activity in the mouse ear edema assay. It was interesting Lo find that both enantiomers of DELTA9-THC carboxylic acid were moderately active as anti-inflammatories. The bicyclic vinyl iodide (18C) also showed appreciable anti-inflammatory activity.

A synthesis of 5′-(2H3)-(−)-11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol methyl ester methylether (4) has been accomplished from α-bromoenone 10. The key steps are the stereocontrolled cyclobutane ring opening of the cuprate adduct 18 and the cyclization of the cyclohexenyl triflate 21 with excess iodotrimethylsilane to produce Δ9-cyclohexenyl triflate 22. An efficient, stereospecific synthesis of optically

of fortune: The inherent cis stereoselectivity of an intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction is reversed through promotion with aluminum tris(2,6‐diphenylphenoxide) (ATPH), allowing a totalsynthesis of the natural product Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (see scheme). Computational studies predict the experimental findings and shed light on the stereocontrolling influences at play in these Diels–Alder reactions
